Vision
The vision of Peace is to be a dynamic, Christ-centered congregation known by its members and the greater community for its commitment to:
Relational (Small) Group Ministries:
A network of small groups that meet regularly to share a common interest, prayer, and spiritual support. Through these groups come spiritual growth, opportunities for leadership, and the motivation and energy for service and outreach activities. The common links between these groups are worship, other large group activities, and leadership training and support.
Children and Youth:
A vibrant, extensive program that engages, teaches, mentors, and entertains our children and youth in a wholesome Christian environment, from preschool through young adulthood. Youth participate in a network of relational groups that are based on common interests, supported by adult lay leadership, and committed to spiritual support. The common links for all ages are large group activities and common worship experiences. Children’s ministry is characterized by strong parental involvement.
Service and Outreach:
Members enthusiastically participating in service and outreach. We support both small and large scale projects championed by members. The question “How can we spread the good news?” is addressed in bold ventures in service ministry.
Worship:
Dynamic, effective worship that provides an encounter with God and unifies individuals into a community of faith. Worship is characterized by a commitment to excellence and employs a variety of formats that enhance access to faith. These worship experiences engage both heart and intellect, helping believers grow in faith and welcoming all who seek a connection with God. The meaningfulness of experience compels the community to worship together regularly.

We rely on prayer.
We seek to discover and share our spiritual gifts.
We encourage and equip people for ministry.
